Made it out to the Forks on Wednesday before may long and packed up on Sunday. Had a great time even though the fishing was slow and the weather wasn't great...both could have been worse!
There is a new boat launch but 95% of it is out of the water because the level is so low (bit of a drop off the end) could be a little sketchy with a big boat unless you know what you are doing (Wayne and Dago had no problem with Dago,s sweet rig)...great to meet you guys!
I spoke to the MD and he said they were going to fix it ASAP, pull some slabs from the top and move them to the bottom, he was taking pictures to show the engineers.
Caught 6 or 7 small sturg 18-26" and one nice one maybe 18-20lb did not measure or weigh just quick picture and back in the water. Caught a decent amount of walleye from the boat biggest was 58cm. Also caught a 13" Prussian carp...not good to see that.
I hope everyone had a safe and memorable May long weekend spent with family and friends....enjoy the pics!
